Chapter 14: A Glimpse of Greed

Tarun, in outrage, was still standing and thinking about what he saw before his eyes. He called his friends Mohit and Sagar, told them all about this, and requested them to pick him up from the place. While waiting, he was smoking in the walkway on the ground floor and heard a melodious old song coming from a flat. In curiosity, he went there and tried to peep through the window of that house. The sight inside the room was unbelievable; there was a man who was fully drunk, laid on the sofa, and in front of him on the table, a huge bundle of cash was scattered.

Sometime later, Tarun's friends arrived at the building's gate. He ran to them and told them what he saw in the flat. They also, in eagerness, wanted to have a look at that. He escorted them to the window, and all of their eyes filled with greed. But Sagar advised not to be greedy and to get to their home as it was getting late.

After reaching outside the building, a thought struck Tarun's mind. He told them that money is the only barrier in their life. They didn't get any respect from society or family because they didn't have any money, and the reason for Yashi's misbehavior was also because he didn't suit her standards of living. Sagar replied that everything he was saying was true, but they had to work hard to achieve this. Tarun interrupted him by saying they all are doing hard work, but nothing is getting into their hands, and Mohit also commented by saying that even if they got a job, they would not be able to achieve the wealth they saw on that table. Tarun, in a passionate way, uttered what would happen if they stole all that money. Sagar responded, "Don't talk rubbish". Mohit professed that all the money lying there looked like black money, and if they robbed that person, he would never, in his sane mind, go to file a report with the police, so they should go for it. Tarun asserted with the plan, but Sagar showed reservations; however, they both accompanied him in their plan.
